Sun Stuff

So I get poked fun of at work any time I wear a Sun shirt.(And no I don’t have Sun Underwear, or Sun Socks, or anything with a Sun logo that is below the belt.).. When I first started I pretty much wore a Sun logo’d item every day… (I have enough, more on that later).  I have cut back some (have to dress up a little more now.) So I decided tonight to start going through the house to find all of my Sun stuff. So far this is what I have found:

  1. Numerous ink pens. Everything from the pen/highlighters from classes, to some more expensive ones that are engraved/etched.
  2. Sun Mints (got to say one of the weirdest)
  3. Sun Sun Glasses
  4. Various Sun Hardware, from Servers to workstations. (SPARC2, 5, and Ultra 5)
